Tucked
under an arm, cradled or dragged, piggy-backed, strollered, twirled
or bagged, here comes Tag-along Louie. Built for the long
haul, he's destined to show up in more than one chapter of the family
album - he'll be the short furry one with the kids.

It's
Louie who NEEDS another cookie in the back seat of the car, but
not to worry about crumbs or melty chocolate chips; his fur is surface
washable. Seventeen inches tall, he pads along on velour paws
and sniffs at every passing wind with a soft velour nose.
His dangly arms are for twirling, and his plastic eyes for watching
the sky whirling by.
